Illustration of retrospective flow quantification. For retrospective quantification of flow parameters based on 2D analysis, planes can be positioned at any anatomic location. In this example, an isosurface of 3D PC-MRA data derived from the 4D Flow CMR data (gray shaded) has been used to guide positioning analysis planes throughout the thoracic aorta. For each analysis plane, the vessel contours are segmented for all cardiac time frames to calculate flow volume, peak velocity and retrograde fraction
